Brother, sister team The team named The Zinc Saucier, featuring brother and sis- ter duo John Whitesell and Ruth Whitesell, of Harveys Lake, and Matthew Zito, of Freeland, won the fast-paced Ultimate Campus Chef Competition sponsored by Metz & Associates at Misericor- dia University. The team’s three-dish menu that included hand-crafted cream of mushroom soup, Panko en- crusted chicken in raspberry sauce and Creme Brulee received top honors. The Ultimate Chef Competi- tion is similar to the spirited cooks-offs featured on the Food and Bravo networks. During the frantic culinary battle, each team had one hour to prepare three dis- hes using a mystery market bas- ket of ingredients that included a unique array of items and present them to the judges. The judges, Christine Somers, director of Campus Ministry, Glen Bozinski, director of Admissions, and Pau- lette Wolanski, administrative specialist in Student Activities, evaluated the dishes on taste, pre- sentation, originality and name.
